Oligofructose Complex

Oligofructose is a polymer of carbohydrate and derivative of fructose polymers. It is available in different vegetables and plants like garlic, bananas, chicory, and onions. The major advantage of oligofructose is that it is suitable for anybody who intends to eat the conventional sweet drinks and foods, without consuming extra calories or increasing blood sugar as well as insulin levels.

Oligofructose helps in keeping the minerals soluble in our intestine where they are absorbed. It also helps reducing the generation of extra free radicals and improves the functions of the vitamins.

This is the major reason behind the use of oligofructose in foodstuffs for people suffering from diabetics.Some researchers claim that oligofructose is capable of controlling blood sugar and improving insulin independently, thus improving the metabolic factor which may be responsible for weight management.
